This updates the mod_wsgi configuration and installation information to be more in line with current usage. It also makes the recommendation to use mod_wsgi more strongly than has been made in the past. In general we don't want people to be running ceilometer-api at all, but it is good for them to have the option. Also an effort has been made to clarify the difference between rpm and deb installations of Apache.

Installing the API behind mod_wsgi
Ceilometer comes with a few example files for configuring the API
service to run behind Apache with mod_wsgi
.
app.wsgi
The file ceilometer/api/app.wsgi
sets up the V2 API WSGI
application. The file is installed with the rest of the ceilometer
application code, and should not need to be modified.
etc/apache2/ceilometer
The etc/apache2/ceilometer
file contains example
settings that work with a copy of ceilometer installed via devstack.
../../../etc/apache2/ceilometer
On deb-based systems copy or symlink the file to
/etc/apache2/sites-available
. For rpm-based systems the file will go in/etc/httpd/conf.d
.Modify the
WSGIDaemonProcess
directive to set theuser
andgroup
values to a appropriate user on your server. In many installationsceilometer
will be correct.Enable the ceilometer site. On deb-based systems:
$ a2ensite ceilometer $ service apache2 reload
On rpm-based systems:
$ service httpd reload
Limitation
As Ceilometer is using Pecan and Pecan's DebugMiddleware doesn't
support multiple processes, there is no way to set debug mode in the
multiprocessing case. To allow multiple processes the DebugMiddleware
may be turned off by setting pecan_debug
to
False
in the api
section of
ceilometer.conf
.
For other WSGI setup you can refer to the pecan deployment documentation. .. _`pecan deployment`: http://pecan.readthedocs.org/en/latest/deployment.html#deployment
